Chad and Troy were casually drinking beer on the couch watching the Soxs game as they waited to go out tonight. Gabriella was sitting at his bar stool flipping through her magazines sipping wine.
"And she's really beautiful." He said sitting down on the couch after just getting up and getting the remote. Gabriella gasped.
"Tell me more!" She said high-pitched resting her head on her hands. Troy rolled his eyes looking at her. "Tell me, does she look like Barbie?" She asked giggling. Troy threw a pillow at her. "I'm done." She said hopping off the bar stool. "I'll meet you guys up at Molly's." She walked out the door.
"Anyways, she is really beautiful and down to earth. I think you'll like her!" Troy exclaimed now that the brunette monster was out of the picture.
"Sounds good!" Chad said getting up and turning the game off. "I'm going to start getting ready." He said. Troy agreed retreating to his room.
Sharpay met up at the bar with her one night stander named Luke. She dressed in a tight black dress, clinging to this tall brunette's arm. He had piercing green eyes and a wide grin. Sharpay met him that one night that they all had drinks together when Troy got home for the first night.
"Nice to meet you." Gabriella offered looking at him. Troy scowled, turning to Chad.
"Well I certainly didn't get that greeting." Troy said looking at her soft smile to the man.
"You didn't start on the right foot with her. She's really defensive when it comes to you." Chad said eating a peanut. Troy just rolled his eyes.
"Whatever." He looked around. "She'll be here any minute." He said looking at the clock reading eight.
"She'll be here any minute." Troy said sipping his beer as the clock read ten. He straightened up his look smoothing out his grey v-neck shirt looking around for her.
"Said the faggot thirty times since 8." Gabriella said annoyed playing with her hair. Troy shot a glare at her having the blue eyes meet the brown. He stared into her eyes for a second feeling embarrassed real quick.
"Where's your boyfriend?" He barked at her. She cracked a smile.
"Stuck at work. At least he texts me his where abouts." She smirked grabbing a bowl of a peanut mix. Troy frowned checking his. Gabriella won.
"Okay she should be here anytime." He repeated.
"How cute! He's as obedient as a dog." She said to herself popping a pistachio nut in her mouth.
"Stop, he's sensitive." Chad told her. She simply rolled her eyes laughing.
"I hear you." He told the two. She perked up.
"Good." She replied to him. He rolled his eyes.
"Can you go sulk elsewhere?" He snapped at her. She smiled.
"Oh but I can't hear you sulk over your girlfriend... That's not going to come." She noted turning to the bar tender. "Can I have another beer?" She asked digging into her purse for her wallet. Troy slammed a twenty in front of her.
"Here, stay out of my way all night." He pushed to the bartender. She looked up at him dumbfounded.
"Alright your loss." She said smiling taking the beer handed to her. Troy was glad he got his co-workers best friend to shut up and stay away. So all he had to do was sit and wait for his girlfriend.
He sat there frowning, looking at eight empty beer cans, and the clock reading 1. He sighed looking around feeling drunk seeing Gabriella singing with a bunch of guys. He raised his eyebrow, getting up and stumbling over. She was singing Alcohol by Brad paisley in the worst pitch ever. She was so wasted that he couldn't help but laugh. He walked over when the song ended, dragging her away. The guys awed as she bowed leaving.
"What do you want?" She asked slurring her words. He saw a napkin safety pinned on her shirt. He was having a hard time reading it. When his vision aligned and she stopped moving, he read the note. 'Take care of her- Chad'. Troy sighed grabbing her again. "Where are we going?" She whined walking out of the bar with him.
"Home." He said stumbling and falling bringing her down too. She laughed, snorting so hard as he laughed too. She snorted again as someone helped picking the two up. "Lets go." He said laughing, throwing an arm around her.
He slowly woke up the next morning, seeing a brunette monster in his bed. He stared at her calm, yet ugly morning face. Her curls were tousled and a little wild, as she snuggled into her own arm. He paused thinking that maybe she wasn't such a little wreck after all. She looked calm when she slept and not high maintenance like she always was. He smiled as he stretched, yawning checking the clock. His bedroom door flew open revealing Renee standing there. He jumped.
"Oh, who is this?" She asked with a growl. She walked over examining her.
"WedidntsleeptogetherI-" He rambled shaking Gabriella to wake up. She groaned flipping over, opening her eyes being face to face with this woman. Gabriella screamed sitting up. Renee was fuming looking at Troy. Gabriella looked at him too screaming. Renee was this tall red head that had thick frames. Her long hair was pulled back into a pony tail as she wore a bright PINK top with grey sweat pants.
"Did we have a threesome?" She asked the female in front of her. She gasped looking at Troy.
"What a catch Troy." She said walking away. Troy flew out of the bed.
"Renee! Wait." Gabriella laughed. Renee looked at her with a look to kill.
"So she does exist." She said laughing. Troy was wrong, she was a monster.
"Who the fuck are you?" Renee said getting defensive. Gabriella's smiled fell off her face turning into a scowl.
"Listen here bitch." She started flexing. Troy went white. He was done living. "I was drinking a little too much last night and he took care of me. He's just a friend." Gabriella said standing up. Renee's arms were crossed looking at her with an intent to kill. "I wouldn't even fuck him when I'm sober." She scoffed to herself leaving the room, hitting shoulders with Renee on the way out. Troy sighed when he heard the door shut. Renee calmed down, looking at Troy.
"I was waiting at the bar all night for you so Sharpay and Chad could meet you." He started as she sat on the bed looking at him. "We drank too much and they ended up leaving, leaving her there with me. I took her home and she fell asleep next to me. That's the high maintenance one I was telling you about." Renee smiled.
"I could tell..." She said as he walked over kissing her. "I'm glad you're honest." She said kissing him back.
"You know I am." He said smirking. "Where were you though?" He asked her. She frowned.
"Lay over and I had no service." She kissed him. "Is your roommate up?" She asked. Troy shrugged. "Good." She threw him on the bed straddling him. "I missed you."
Sharpay poured her a cup of coffee giving her the cream and sugar. Gabriella sighed running her hands through her hair grabbing the cup of coffee. Gabriella had many thoughts running around in her head as she reminisced back to this morning's wake up call. Sharpay took a seat next to her sipping on her cup of coffee. She tilted her head slightly looking at her worrying best friend about to ask a question.
"Should I go an apologize?" Gabriella asked her looking at her face. Sharpay bit her lip looking at the brunette.
"To whom?" She asked.
"Renee." Gabriella paused sipping her drink. "I could care less about Troy." She said muttering to herself. Sharpay propped her elbows up on her table shrugging her shoulders.
"Why do you hate him so much?" She asked studying her intently.
"Because he's an asshole. This cocky ignorant asshole." She said getting mad. Sharpay backed off.
"Okay, okay!" She said frowning. "I just wanted to see why you hate him." She said. Gabriella shrugged.
"Not a big fan of New Yorkers." She joked smiling earning a laugh from Sharpay. Gabriella sighed hopping off the bar stool. "Thanks for the coffee but I have work." Gabriella gave her best friend a hug and a kiss gathering her things and leaving her apartment and plugging her head phones is hearing FUN's song, 'I wanna be the one' as she walked. Her little bakery wasn't far away from either her or Sharpay's place. She decided on all the things she could do with her majors was a major in culinary and a minor in business. She took classes to help her open a little business based on sugary goods and sweet delights. She then opened one of the most successful bakery's in the Chicago land having many customers a day. As she walked to the bakery, she pulled her keys out and opened the door, turning around to flip the open sign and stop and smile. Opening her bakery everyday didn't get old. She flipped on all the coffee machines, turned all the lights on and started everything up. One by one her workers filled in starting their jobs for the day.
She helps make food in the back in the early mornings and late nights but then in the afternoon and late morning she runs the outside doing the cash register and putting orders together. She sometimes liked to pipe out frosting on cupcakes infront of the customers because the kids seemed to enjoy it. She loved whenever kids were in the bakery observing her work. She sighed pipping out a bunch of pink and blue cupcakes for a baby shower. Her client is expecting twins and for her shower she wanted to mix it up with doing different kinds. Gabriella was too busy fixing her cupcakes when a tall red head walked in. She walked up to the display looking at the cupcakes browsing her selection. Gabriella saw the female looking down.
"Hello how are you today?" Gabriella asked her in a sweet tone. Renee's head shot up with an annoyed expression. Gabriella's smile dropped off her face seeing Renee stand there.
"Oh god you work here?" She asked surprised crossing her arms scoffing. Gabriella bit her tongue about to swear her out but she had to hold it in because she was at work.
"I own this bakery." She rebutted setting her hands on the table. "Do you want anything or not?" She barked at her. Renee looked surprised, about to laugh.
"Can I have the french silk cupcakes." She said pointing her freshly manicured nails on the viewing glass. Gabriella nodded putting her gloves on and grabbing four cup cakes loading them into a box.
"Will that be it?" She asked softly punching in her order into the cash register. Renee remained silent making Gabriella look up at her with a wondering look.
"You hide so much potential. You give off your attitude like a big bitch but deep down you are a sweet girl. What's holding you back?" She asked her. Gabriella felt like this new woman was trying to play therapist with her and help change her. She looked down at the register.
"That'll be 4.87" She said seeing Renee hand a five over.
"Keep the change." She said with a smirk taking her box and turning to leave. Gabriella looked at her line of customers as Renee turned around. "Oh and I'll be seeing you around Gabriella." She said leaving. Gabriella sighed looking at a family.
"Hi how may I help you today?" She asked with a big smile.
